tampered with and lacks transparency and accountability as artie's on a fussy truck can i reports. the us a beacon of democracy and an example to be followed by the rest of the world devoted to one big source of pride is its fundamental concept of free and fair elections american elections are a disgrace it's like walking into the kitchen of a first class restaurant and losing your appetite at what you see because we have an election system a voting system that is completely nontransparent an opinion shared by many political experts and educators if you were here. in a magician suit who then went behind the curtain came out having first shredded the ballots to go you won would you trust that process and that process largely to blame is the outdated elec tronics moving system in the states where all they have this electronic voting that could be a real problem. if you don't have some other type of backup source to verify the

vote count. it could be a problem read friedman is an independent award winning blogger who has covered the u.s. election system for years he calls the problem a pandemic and says change is long overdue. every single state in the union uses electronic voting a third of the voters this year will vote on one hundred percent on verifiable touch screen voting systems electronic voting systems. the rest of the country by and large will vote on paper ballots but those paper ballots are also counted by electronic systems unless you can see inside a computer there's no way to know if those computers tallied those ballots correctly several experiments conducted on electronic voting machines have proven that simple keystrokes and some knowledge of science and computers could flip results the circuitry inside the machine clears being created in numbers inserted to correct the pin numbers experts say the accuracy of the vote count even with
7:07 am
people trail is a myth in the ninety nine percent plus percent of the cases those ballots never see the light of day they're never examined never reach out and basically american elections at this point have virtually zero claim on public confidence and with intimacy the rules and specific ations of how elections are held very locally and state by state four thousand different counties each of them use a different type of system a different type of voting system each of them have different laws different vulnerabilities one particular company that makes electronic voting machines in the u.s. has earned a dubious reputation for unverifiable results as records vanish into thin air i go to an a.t.m. and it's a double machine i get a confirmation slip and i go around the corner to vote and i you know make my vote and there's no record deeble did other voter machine production companies are also known to have strong partisan affiliations they are not accountable to any voters.

they are not just private but but private and extreme in their political sympathies democrats don't actually win that many elections to be precise democrats almost never win close elections and the trick therefore is to see to it that a race is born. looks close improving the election process in this digital age doesn't appear to be on anyone's agenda including barack obama's our president who won't talk ever about election fraud and denies that it has ever happened even when you know members of his own party have been the victims of it and while the number of reported flaws grows with each passing election over the past decade since two thousand when. congress was pretending to want to make things better what has happened is things have gotten much much worse it appears stealing an election in the us may be a candidate certain way to secure a win it's easy as one two three in this digital age of smartphones tablets and

7:10 am
is recommended to take it down if it doesn't then its host is asked to do the seamers of if the information still remains online then the website is put on this list of. internet resources and is walked and. until the information is taken off it remains blocked but when it's taken off then. it could go back online again tell us more about the controversy that surrounds the law we know not a lot of people are happy with this well there's been a mixed reaction from everybody basically from all users in the internet bloggers have been divided into do you woops basically those who do believe that this war could help protect children from this potentially harmful information and those who see that it could be just a new form of censorship in the internet actually a few months ago when the wall was just passed. there was lots of criticism from many popular internet resources including. those like the russian version of
7:11 am
wikipedia which actually shut itself down for one b. even just they were back then saying that the law was written so we believe that well basically it would give thought to use so much. possibilities to shut down websites they simply don't like so also saying that it could be potentially used to censor the internet there's also been criticism from the west including washington which were voiced concern that this could be potentially a form of censorship in the internet but we do we do have to remember that many western governments including in the united states are trying to pass civil wars which could needle them to shut down weapon. websites rather they simply don't like this has been causing weaves of scritches of them all over the western wall while here in russia we're talking about temporary measures and even some websites if they're shut down then they are still put back online as soon as this potentially qualify information is taken down. this canal thank you but here we'll be keeping

shot in the back to death or the unarmed guy in a wheelchair who got blown away by the boys in blue i understand that being in the police is rough everyone lies to you and any given day you could be shot dead so i get it when after a long police chase someone just snaps and in all honesty fire when the police might do the same thing but it takes a certain kind of person who enjoys of be using their uniform to make the helpless suffer you can't tolerate sadists or those with napoleon complexes in the police and you know what they aren't that hard to spot in the shower because if you like to tase the elderly or shoot wheelchair bound people then you probably don't have much of a certain something but that's just my opinion. of the six america votes for its next president. who takes the wheel as the us

elections that are now going to be held next year until now has stood firmly in the same camp this is prime minister benjamin netanyahu both has repeatedly warned against is the nuclear capability of the rand have warned of an impending israeli strike we saw it in. ahu not so long ago at the united nations general assembly drawing a red line but what many experts here in israel say is that that was a red line by which israel would strike iran rather than a way line in terms of a deadline by which tehran would acquire nuclear capability but rock heads up his own political party and certainly what he is trying to do now is distance himself from netanyahu on the whole iran question he is trying to appeal to voters who have not yet decided and this division between them does seem to suggest bracks saying that netanyahu may not have been completely truthful around the iranian nuclear threat certainly there is a division not only on this level but in the greater political elite here in israel
